- 8 out of 10 wasn't bad. Got hung up on some of those double consonants.

- My results were mildly embarrassing at best. I can barely stomach an 80. Surprisingly,Once I got in to a rhythm I was able to exercise my ability to spell. I found it necessary to separate the obvious misspelled words from the correct answers. The last one was an excerpt from a different dictionary allowing you to .accommodate multiple cultures. Great Quiz.
Adieu.

- 7 out of ten should've been 8 because English-English uses s and not z in surprising!

- I got a 7! Awww...I have spelixia or something(if there is such a word that exist)...shame on me. Imagine I spelled the word rythum for rhythm. Fun quiz at least now I know I either have to go back to school or see if there is a new term for my misspellings. LOL These spelling peeves are words that are often misspelled too.
